A BRAND NEW FANTASY FROM THE #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR
The only way to win, is to survive.
'Each page is fierce and filled with yearning - I loved it' ANDREA STEWART
Every year, thousands flock to San-Er, the dangerously dense capital twin cities of the kingdom of Talin, where the palace hosts a set of deadly games. Those confident in their ability to jump between bodies can enter a fight to the death - for the chance to win unimaginable riches.
Princess Calla Tuoleimi has been in hiding for five years, ever since she murdered her parents to free the people of Talin from her tyrannical family. Only one person stands in her way of finishing the job: her reclusive uncle King Kasa. However, she knows he always greets the victor of the games. If she wins, she will finally get the chance to kill him.
Enter Anton Makusa, whose childhood love has lain in a coma since they were both ousted from the palace. He's deep in debt trying to keep her alive. Which means his last chance at saving her is entering the games and winning.
When Anton proposes an unexpected alliance with Calla, they quickly find their partnership spiraling into something all-consuming. But before the games close, Calla must decide what she's playing for - her lover or her kingdom. For no matter what, only one of them can walk out alive . . .
#1 New York Times bestselling author Chloe Gong's adult epic fantasy debut, inspired by Shakespeare's Antony and Cleopatra, is a fiery collision of power plays, spilled blood, and romance amidst a set of deadly games.

Ostatnia powieść królowej fantastyki! Lawinia, księżniczka Lacjum, bardzo chciałaby żyć w spokoju. Jej marzenia przekreśla jednak wielka polityka i starania matki, Amaty, by zaręczyć dziewczynę z przystojnym, ambitnym Turnusem. Na drodze do małżeństwa staje przepowiednia: Lawinia ma poślubić cudzoziemca, który przyczyni się do rozpoczęcia okrutnej wojny, a następnie w niej zginie. Tymczasem do Italii przypływają uciekinierzy z opanowanej wojną Troi, a wraz z nimi tajemniczy Eneasz… Zainspirowana „Eneidą” opowieść to jedna z najbardziej wyjątkowych historii w dorobku Ursuli K. Le Guin. Zrodziła się z refleksji nad postacią Lawinii, współzałożycielki przyszłego imperium, która u Wergiliusza nie wypowiedziała nawet słowa. Autorka „Ziemiomorza” po latach oddaje sprawiedliwość legendarnej kobiecie, opisując jej pełne namiętności i okrucieństwa losy w mistrzowski, pełen lirycznego piękna sposób. Ursula K. Le Guin(1929–2018) nazywana jest królową światowej fantastyki. Była córką znanego antropologa Alfreda L. Kroebera i badaczki indiańskiego folkloru Theodory Kroeber. Le Guin z domu wyniosła znajomość rytuałów, obrzędów i szamańskich praktyk, a także szacunek wobec kulturowej odmienności. Miało to ogromny wpływ na jej twórczość, utrzymaną w konwencji science fiction i fantasy. Opowieści pisarki są wysoko cenione również poza kręgiem miłośników tych gatunków („Czarnoksiężnik z Archipelagu” od lat znajduje się na liście lektur szkolnych). Obok bardzo sugestywnych wizji rzeczywistości zawierają one niezwykle interesujące portrety psychologiczne bohaterów oraz niebanalne przesłania. Książki Ursuli K. Le Guin przekładali m.in. Stanisław Barańczak, Paulina Braiter i Piotr Cholewa.
To jeden z najlepszych współczesnych horrorów. Nastrój grozy i napięcia potęguje się w niej z każdą minutą. Pięcioletni chłopiec Danny znalazł się z rodzicami w opustoszałym na zimie hotelu. Wrażliwe, obdarzone zdolnościami wizjonerskimi dziecko odbiera fluidy czające się w jego murach, były one świadkami krwawych porachunków świata przestępczego i milionerów. Straszliwe zdarzenia, które kończą fabułę, są jednak niczym w porównaniu z przejściami psychicznymi bohaterów.
Billy Summers jest najlepszy w swoim fachu. Eliminuje ludzi, ale tylko tych naprawdę złych. Był snajperem w Iraku, więc zna się na rzeczy i zawsze strzela celnie. Tym razem przyjmuje ostatnie zlecenie. Czas w końcu na zasłużoną emeryturę. Niestety, coś idzie nie tak A nawet wszystko.

Edgar Allan Poe was a writer of uncommon talent; in The Murders in the Rue Morgue he created the genre of detective fiction while his genius for finding the strangeness lurking within us all has been an influence on everyone from Freud to Hollywood. This complete collection of all his short stories and novellas contains well-known tales 'The Pit and the Pendulum' and 'The Tell-Tale Heart' alongside hidden gems that both unsettle and enthrall the reader.
On an epic voyage far beyond the Republic, the Jedi will confront their most extraordinary enemy-and test the limits of honor and sacrifice against their most devastating challenge. . . .
The Clone Wars have yet to erupt when Jedi Master Jorus C'baoth petitions the Senate for support of a singularly ambitious undertaking: the dream of Outbound Flight. Six Jedi Masters, twelve Jedi Knights, and fifty thousand men, women, and children will embark-aboard a gargantuan vessel, equipped for years of travel-on a mission to contact intelligent life and colonize undiscovered worlds beyond the known galaxy.
Unknown to the famed Jedi Master, the successful launch of the mission is secretly being orchestrated by an unlikely ally: the evil Sith Lord, Darth Sidious, who has his own reasons for wanting Outbound Flight to move forward.
Yet Darth Sidious is not the mission's most dangerous challenge. Once underway, the starship crosses paths at the edge of Unknown Space with the forces of the alien Chiss Ascendancy and a brilliant mastermind named Thrawn. Even Jedi Knight Obi-Wan Kenobi, aboard Outbound Flight with his young Padawan student, Anakin Skywalker, cannot help avert disaster. Thus what begins as a peaceful Jedi mission is violently transformed into an all-out war for survival against staggering odds-and the most diabolical of adversaries.
The specter of the meancing Grand Admiral Thrawn looms over Luke Skywalker and Mara Jade as they embark on a journey to recover an important piece of Jedi history.
Sometimes it seems a Jedi's work is never done and Luke and Mara Jade Skywalker know this only too well. Despite the bond they share in the Force, after three years of marriage the Jedi Master and his wife are still learning the ropes of being a couple-and struggling to find time together between the constant demands of duty. But all that will change when they're united on an unexpected mission: They must pool their exceptional skills to combat an insidious enemy and salvage a part of Jedi history.
Whatever may await, the Skywalkers will not face it alone. Joining them on the strange and solemn journey are an officer of the post-Palpatine Empire, escorted by a detachment of Imperial stormtroopers; a party of diplomats from a gentle alien species that reveres the fallen Jedi for saving them from bloodthirsty conquerors; and a New Republic ambassador who harbors his own mysterious agenda.
Soon enough, suspicion, secrecy, and an unknown saboteur run rampant aboard the isolated ship. But it is within the derelict walls of Outbound Flight itself, buried for half a century on a desolate planetoid, where the gravest danger lies. As the marooned hulk yields up stunning revelations and unexpected terrors to its visitors, Luke and Mara find all they stand for-and their very existence-brutally challenged. And the ultimate test will be surviving the deathtrap carefully laid by foes who are legendary for their ruthlessness . . . and determined to complete the job Thrawn began: exterminating the Jedi.
